About this map

Lake Springfield dominates the western landscape of this Sangamon County region, its northern reaches featuring Lake Park and the Lincoln Greens Golf Course. The map reflects a period of educational and residential expansion, noted by the presence of Sangamon State University and schools like Hazel Dell Sch near the growing suburb of Southlawn. In the rural hinterlands, the South Fork Sangamon River meanders through agricultural bottomlands, joined by tributaries such as Horse Creek and Brush Creek.
